How does the 555 Timer work? NE555 is one of the most popular and widely used ICs of all time. In this blog, we will discuss the working of the 555 timer IC. Overview The 555 Timer was designed by Hans Camenzind in 1971. It can be found in vast variety of electronic devices. 555 […]
What are Active components in electronics and Their Classification
Definition of Active components: “Active components are those who has the ability to control flow of electrons either by using voltage or by using another current.” Voltage-controlled devices are MOSFETs, vacuum tubes, while current-controlled devices are bipolar junction transistors which allow one current to control another. Active components can be of different types like semiconductor […]
Flashing LED with 555 timer
